Factory Metal Percussion: Distributed by LP/Kaman
SOMETHING NEW – SOMETHING DIFFERENT – SOMETHING AFFORDABLE
Factory Metal Percussion™ is proud to announce LP/Kaman Music as the Worldwide Distributor for the new Street FX. To meet increased production demands, FMP has partnered with Wolfe Industries - a premier metal shop based in Southern California. Jim Anderson FMP President commented, “The Street FX product line matches high quality with affordable entry-level prices. The new FMP production facility at Wolfe along with Kaman distribution ensures dealers the highest quality products and best service available.”
LP/Kaman NAMM Show offerings include Street FX Celtic Bells, Cross Crasherz and Hi-Hat Jinglers. The Celtic Bells radiate a pure bell sound with an edgy metallic bite. Glass breaking overtones range from bright and resonant to short and trashy. Cross Crasherz produce a white noise effect with a unique metallic sustain and can be layered in combination for specialized sound colors. The Hi-Hat Jingler creates a bright metallic tambourine foot effect. The durable design can be integrated into complex hi-hat sticking patterns.
According to new Factory Metal CEO Greg Wolfe, “Rather than going to Asia, it has long been our goal to keep production here in America and find innovative ways to increase value. Street FX represents our dedication to this cause, with product improvements such as automated hammering, durable gloss black finishes, custom printed logos, innovative display brackets and full dealer services available through LP/Kaman Music.
Street FX brand image marketing will concentrate on advertisements in Modern Drummer, Drum and Drumhead magazine. Website updates now feature audio/video demos on sound options and setups. On the retail floor FMP Dealers will benefit from our new display brackets, drum clinic support and entry-level prices. Innovative product designs, great service and affordable prices - it’s a win-win for everyone involved.”
